Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uhlela ukubhekana nokwehla kwehlathi elinodaka, noma uzame emjahweni womgwaqo, noma vele uhambe umzila wendawo wokudonsa umsele, ungathola ibhayisikili elikufanele.
Umqedazwe we-coronavirus wenze indlela abantu abaningi ezweni abathanda ngayo ukuhlala benempilo yaba yinto engasho lutho.Ngenxa yalokho, abantu abaningi manje sebephendukela emasondweni amabili ukuze bazivocavoce nsuku zonke.
Izibalo zikahulumeni kusukela ehlobo lika-2020 zibonisa ukuthi izinga lokungena kwamabhayisikili lenyuke ngo-300%, futhi lesi sibalo asizange sehle njengoba singena ngo-1920s ngokucophelela.
Nokho, ezinkulungwaneni zabasanda kufika, umhlaba wamabhayisikili ungaba indawo edidayo.Umsebenzi obonakala ulula wokukhetha ibhayisikili elisha ungashesha ubangele ikhanda, sibonga kakhulu ngenani elidizayo lezigaba ezingezansi.Akuwona wonke amabhayisikili afanayo.
Yingakho isinyathelo sokuqala sokuthenga umkhiqizo kufanele kube ukuqonda izinhlobo ezahlukene ezinikezwayo futhi unqume ukuthi yimuphi umkhiqizo ohlangabezana nezidingo zakho kangcono.
Lapha uzothola ulwazi olubalulekile mayelana nezinhlobo zamabhayisikili ezijwayeleke kakhulu nokuthi yimaphi abagibeli bamabhayisikili abalungele.
Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uhlela ukuziphonsela endaweni eyihlathi enodaka, uyizame emjahweni womgwaqo, noma uhambe umzila wendawo yomsele, uzothola umshini ohlangabezana nalezi zindlela ezilandelayo.
Ungathemba isibuyekezo sethu esizimele.Singase sithole amakhomishini avela kubathengisi abathile, kodwa asisoze sakuvumela lokhu ukuba kuthonye ukukhetha, okusekelwe ekuhlolweni kwangempela kanye nezeluleko zochwepheshe.Le mali engenayo isisiza ukuxhasa ubuntatheli be-The Independent.
Lapho uthenga ibhayisikili elisha, into eyodwa iphakamisa zonke ezinye: kufanelekile.Uma usayizi webhayisikili ungafanelekile kuwe, ngeke ukhululeke futhi ngeke ukwazi ukuthola ukuma okuhle kokugibela.
Abakhiqizi abaningi bazoba neshadi endaweni ethile kuwebhusayithi yabo elibonisa ukuthi usayizi wohlaka lwamamodeli ahlukahlukene uhlobene nobude bomgibeli.Osayizi ngokuvamile izinombolo-48, 50, 52, 54 njll-imvamisa ebonisa ubude ithubhu isihlalo noma (okungajwayelekile kakhulu) jack tube, noma S, M noma L format ejwayelekile.Ishadi lizokunikeza ukukhetha okunzima ngokusekelwe ekuphakameni kwakho.
Kodwa kufanele kuqashelwe ukuthi lokhu kuwumbono onzima ngempela.Izinto ezinjengobude obuphansi nobude bengalo konke kuhilelekile.Izindaba ezinhle ukuthi eziningi zalezi ziguquguqukayo zingaxazululwa kalula ngokulungiswa okumbalwa kuphela kwebhayisikili, njengokushintsha ukuphakama kwesihlalo sehhashi noma ukusebenzisa induku ehlukile (i-drill bit exhuma isibambo neshubhu lokuqondisa).Ukuze uthole ukuthula kwengqondo okuphelele, sicela ubhukhe ibhayisikili lochwepheshe elikufanele esitolo sangakini samabhayisikili.
Ngaphezu kokufaneleka, kunezici ezithile ezibalulekile okufanele uzicabangele lapho ukhetha ibhayisikili elisha.Lena imininingwane enquma ukusebenza, futhi iyahlukahluka kuye ngokusetshenziswa okuhlosiwe kwebhayisikili elithile.
Ngaphandle uma ungumgibeli wethrekhi, i-hipster noma ususa amazinyo ngamabomu, uzodinga ukufaka isethi yamabhuleki ebhayisikilini lakho.
Ngokuvamile kunezinhlobo ezimbili ezihlukene zamabhuleki: rim kanye nediski.I-rim brake ishayelwa intambo yensimbi futhi isebenza ngokumpintsha irimu phakathi kwamaphedi enjoloba amabili.Amabhuleki amadiski angaba ngaphansi kwamanzi noma emishini (asebenza kahle kakhulu emanzini), futhi angasebenza ngokumpintsha idiski yensimbi exhunywe kuhabhu phakathi kwamahabhu amabili.
Ukusethwa kwamabhuleki okuhle kakhulu kuncike kakhulu ekutheni uhlose ukulisebenzisa kanjani ibhayisikili.Isibonelo, amabhuleki amarimu endabuko abe yinketho yokuqala yamabhayisikili omgwaqo ngenxa yesisindo sawo esilula (nakuba amabhuleki ediski aya ngokuya ethandwa), kuyilapho amabhuleki ediski eyisinqumo esihlakaniphile samabhayisikili asezintabeni ngoba ahlinzeka ngokusebenza okuthembekile odakeni noma amafindo..manzi.
I-Groupset yigama elisetshenziselwa ukuchaza zonke izingxenye ezihambayo ezihlobene nokubhuleka, ukuguquka kanye nokudluliswa kwamaketango.Empeleni iyinjini yebhayisikili futhi idlala indima ebalulekile ekunqumeni ukusebenza kanye nekhwalithi yokushayela.
Kuyizibungu eziningi, kodwa iqiniso elisobala liwukuthi: kukhona abakhiqizi abathathu abakhulu-i-Shimano, i-SRAM ne-Campagnolo (akuvamile), kungcono ukunamathela kubo;zingaba ngomshini noma ngogesi;amanani aphezulu akhuphuka ngokulinganayo Ukugqama nokuguquguquka okushelelayo;bonke ngokuyisisekelo benza umsebenzi ofanayo.
Lokhu kubandakanya zonke izingxenye eziqinile eziyinsalela kuhlaka lwebhayisikili kanye nemfoloko yangaphambili (uhlaka).Sikhuluma ngezibambo, izihlalo, izigxobo kanye nezigxobo.Lezi zingcezu zokubhoboza kulula ukuzishintsha noma uzilungise ukuze ufinyelele ukulingana okungcono noma ukhuphule ukunethezeka, ngakho-ke ungavumeli izinto ezifana nezihlalo ezingakhululekile ziwe kwenye indawo.
Okuqukethwe oskrolayo kudlala indima ebalulekile ekuzweni kwebhayisikili kanye nokusebenza kwalo ngaphansi kwezimo ezithile.Ngokufanayo, ukuthi yini okufanele uyibheke eqoqweni lamasondo kuncike ekusetshenzisweni kwayo okuhlosiwe.Uma ushayela emgwaqeni wetiyela, amasondo amasondo e-carbon fibre ajulile anamathayi abushelelezi angu-25mm muhle, kodwa hhayi kangako ezindleleni zamabhayisikili ezintaba ezinodaka.
Ngokuvamile, ezinye zezinto ezibalulekile okufanele uzibheke esondweni isisindo (esilula futhi esingcono), impahla (i-carbon fibre iyinkosi, kodwa intengo iphakeme, khetha ingxubevange ukuze wonge imali) nosayizi (usayizi wamasondo kanye nokuphuma kwesondo. yohlaka Ukusebenzisa kubalulekile) Uma ufuna ukusebenzisa amathayi akhuluphele).
Edolobheni elikhulu njengeLondon, indawo iyigugu kangangokuthi akuwona wonke umuntu ongagcina ibhayisikili eliwusayizi ogcwele.isixazululo?Thola into encane ngokwanele ukugoqa ekhabetheni.Amabhayisikili agoqayo angumphelelisi ofanelekile wokuya emadolobheni.Incane futhi iyasebenza, futhi ungayibeka ezintweni zokuhamba zomphakathi ngaphandle kokuba yisitha sokuqala somphakathi.
I-Brompton yakudala ilungele uhambo olude, udinga ukuyibeka esiqongweni sebhasi, ithilamu noma isitimela.
Wina umqhele ekubuyekezeni kwethu amabhayisikili asongekayo angcono kakhulu, khuluma nanoma ubani ogibela ibhayisikili mayelana namabhayisikili asongekayo, futhi igama elithi Brompton lizovela maduze.Zakhiwe eLondon kusukela ngo-1975, futhi umklamo wazo awukashintshi.Umhloli wethu uthe: “Isihlalo eside kanye ne-rubber suspension block ngemuva kwenza ukugibela kube ntofontofo, kanti amasondo angu-16 inch anika amandla ukusheshisa.Usayizi wamasondo amancane nawo usho ukuthi aqinile emigwaqweni emibi futhi engalingani.Kubaluleke kakhulu.”
“Le nguqulo emnyama ehlakaniphile inezibambo eziqondile ezimise okuka-S, ukudluliselwa kwamagiya amabili, amafenda namalambu e-Cateye aphinde ashajeka, ayenza ilungele ukuhamba.Ngokuzijwayeza, kufanele ukwazi ukugoqa ngemizuzwana engama-20 ngokushesha Futhi. ”
Kulabo abadinga isivinini, izimoto zokugijima zingase zibe yisinqumo esingcono kakhulu.Zinezibambo ezehlayo, amathayi azacile kanye nendlela yokugibela enolaka (umzimba ongaphezulu unwebeka ubheke engxenyeni engezansi), futhi yakhelwe ikakhulukazi isivinini, ukuguquguquka nokulula.
Wake wayibuka i-Tour de France?Bese usujwayelene nalolu hlobo lwebhayisikili.Okuwukuphela kokungalungile ukuthi indawo yokugibela i-aerodynamic ayikhululekile isikhathi eside, ikakhulukazi kulabo abangenakho ukuguquguquka noma abangajwayele lesi sikhundla.
Ngokuvamile, ukusebenza kwemoto kukhuliswa ngokusebenzisa izicathulo zebhayisikili (uhlobo lwe-pedal olunomshini wokubopha) olufakwe ngama-cleats.Balungisa izinyawo endaweni ukuze bakwazi ukuthola amandla phakathi nakho konke ukujikeleza kwe-pedal.
Amabhayisikili e-Endurance aklanyelwe ukugibela amabanga amade phezu kwesihlalo setiyela, kucatshangelwa ijubane nokunethezeka.Anezibambo zokudonsela phansi, amathayi azacile (imvamisa aphakathi kuka-25mm no-28mm), futhi athi ukuma kancane kancane futhi ashintshashintshashintshayo emoyeni kunamabhayisikili okugijima ahlanzekile.Ngakho-ke, bakhululeke kakhulu lapho behamba amabanga amade.Kulokhu, ukunciphisa ubuhlungu obuhlobene nesikhundla nobuhlungu kubaluleke kakhulu kunokunciphisa okuncane kokumelana.
Okulungele: Noma ubani ofuna ukushesha kodwa anethezekile, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi kuphakathi kwamamayela ayi-100 noma nje ukujima kwakho kwansuku zonke kokuqina
Amabhayisikili esivivinyo sesikhathi (TT) aklanyelwe ukwenza into eyodwa kuphela: shayela ngokushesha okukhulu futhi unciphise ukujika.Uma uke wabona umgibeli webhayisikili egibela i-Lycra, kodwa egibele kokuthile okubukeka njenge-Battlestar Galactica kunebhayisikili, cishe lokho kungenye yazo.Njengoba igama liphakamisa, zenzelwe ukuhlola isikhathi sokuhamba ngebhayisikili, okuwumncintiswano ohamba yedwa phakathi komgibeli webhayisikili newashi.
I-Aerodynamics iwumgogodla womklamo webhayisikili we-TT.Badinga ukunqamula umoya ngokuphumelelayo ngangokunokwenzeka, futhi babeka umgibeli endaweni enolaka kakhulu ukuze afinyelele lo mgomo.Inzuzo yalokhu ukuthi banokhahlo kakhulu.Okubi ukuthi awakhululeki kakhulu futhi awasebenzi ngokwedlulele ekusebenziseni nje, okungenakho ukuncintisana.
Uma inhloso yakho enkulu kuwukungena nokwehle esitolo, noma ukugibela nje uziphumulele ngezimpelasonto, khona-ke umjaho we-carbon fiber noma amabhayisikili amiswe ngokugcwele asezintabeni kungase kube inkinga encane.Okudingayo imoto eyi-hybrid.Lawa ma-all rounders athobekile athola ingqikithi ezinhlobonhlobo zezitayela zamabhayisikili futhi azisebenzisele ukudala izinto ezanele ekusebenzeni nokunethezeka kwabagibeli bamabhayisikili abavamile bansuku zonke.
Ama-Hybrid avame ukuba nezibambo eziyisicaba, amagiya ebhayisikili omgwaqo, namathayi awugqinsi, futhi angasetshenziswa kumaphinifa kanye nasezintweni ezikhanyayo ezingaphandle komgwaqo.Futhi angamanye amabhayisikili athengekayo futhi asebenziseka kalula, alungele abasaqalayo noma abantu abasebenzisa ibhajethi.
Phakathi kwabaphumelele ukubuyekezwa kwethu kwemoto eyi-hybrid ehamba phambili, lena inokusebenza okuvelele.“Ukuze kube lula, u-Boardman wakhetha iyunithi yegiya elingu-12 wafaka i-sprocket eyodwa esondweni langaphambili, futhi wanikeza amazinyo angu-51 amangalisayo ku-flywheel.Le nhlanganisela izokuvumela ukuthi ucishe uxazulule lokho esingase sihlangane nakho emgwaqeni.Noma yiziphi izinkinga.”Abahloli bethu babonisile.
Bathole ukuthi isiqu se-valve edidiyelwe nezibambo zilula futhi zinesitayela, kuyilapho uhlaka lwengxubevange kanye nemfoloko ye-carbon fibre kusho ukuthi isisindo saso silinganiselwa ku-10 kg-uzokwazisa uma ushintsha usuka ebhayisikilini lezintaba noma i-hybrid eshibhile.“Amasondo e-700c afakwe amathayi e-35mm Schwalbe Marathon esezingeni eliphezulu, okumele akubambe ngokwanele uma usebenzisa amabhuleki anamandla eShimano hydraulic disc.Ungakwazi ukufaka ama-mudguards nama-racks wemithwalo, okwenza kube okufanelekile ukuhamba kwansuku zonke.”
Eminyakeni embalwa edlule, akekho owayeke wezwa ngamabhayisikili akhiwe ngamatshe.Manje bagcwele yonke indawo.Lezi zinguquko ze-drop rod ngezinye izikhathi zibizwa ngokuthi "amabhayisikili emigwaqo yonke", futhi zisebenzisa i-geometry evamile nokucushwa kwamabhayisikili omgwaqo futhi ziwafanise namagiya namasayizi amathayi, afana kakhulu namabhayisikili asezintabeni.Umphumela uba ukuthi umshini ukwazi ukushibilika etiyeleni ngokushesha, kodwa ngokungafani namabhayisikili asemgwaqweni, usebenza kahle lapho umgwaqo uphela.
Uma uzimisele ngokushiya ithrekhi eshayiwe futhi uqhelelane nethrafikhi, kodwa ungafuni ukususa umgwaqo ngokuphelele, khona-ke amabhayisikili egravel ayisinqumo esilungele wena.
Ukuhamba ngomzila wehlathi ocishe umile akuwona wonke umuntu.Kulabo abasafuna ukunqamula izwe kodwa abangeqisi kakhulu, ukuhamba ngebhayisikili ezintabeni (XC) kuyisinqumo esihle.Amabhayisikili e-XC ngokuvamile amabhayisikili anomsila oqinile futhi afana kakhulu namabhayisikili asezintabeni ezingekho emgwaqeni ngezindlela eziningi.Umehluko oyinhloko i-geometry.
Amabhayisikili e-Cross-country mountain bikes aklanyelwe ukucabangela ukwehlela kwentaba, kodwa amabhayisikili e-XC aklanyelwe ukusetshenziswa okubanzi futhi adinga ukukwazi ukukhuphuka.Ngenxa yalokho, ama-engeli ekhanda lawo aphakeme kakhulu (okusho ukuthi amasondo angaphambili atholakala ngemuva), okubenza bangakufanelekeli ukugibela ekwehleni okunolaka, kodwa afaneleka kakhulu emidlalweni ye-cross-country.
Uma iphupho lakho ligcwele ukweqa, irempu kanye nezimpande ezikhuphukayo zozalo, uzodinga amabhayisikili asezintabeni ezingekho emgwaqeni.Le mishini engangenwa izinhlamvu inezibambo eziyisicaba, amathayi anamafindo amafutha kanye nama-engeli ekhanda axegayo (okusho ukuthi amasondo angaphambili angaphambili ngaphambili kwezibambo) ukuze agcine uzinzo endaweni ewumqansa.Ibhayisikili lezintaba elingekho emgwaqeni nalo linohlelo lokumiswa olukwazi ukuphatha umhlabathi omahhadlahhadla futhi ongalingani ngesivinini esikhulu.
Kunezilungiselelo ezimbili okufanele zicatshangelwe: ukumiswa okugcwele (imfoloko nokumunca ukushaqeka kufreyimu) noma umsila oqinile (imfoloko kuphela, uhlaka oluqinile).Okwangaphambili kungenza ukugibela kuzinze, kodwa abanye abagibeli bakhetha imisila eqinile ngenxa yesisindo sabo esilula kanye nesiphetho esingemuva esiqinile esinikeza impendulo ethintekayo.
Lo mkhiqizi waseBrithani usemusha kumabhayisikili angekho emgwaqeni, futhi wahlaba umxhwele nakakhulu lapho ewina umhlabeleli wethu wamabhayisikili angaphandle komgwaqo.Umbuyekezi wethu uthe: “Inejiyomethri ye-pitch ephelele, futhi lapho ugibele isihlalo sehhashi, lo muzwa uhumusha umuzwa olinganisele kakhulu—ngisho nalapho ushayela wehla ngesivinini esisheshayo, uyakwazi ukulawula yonke into., Okukunikeza isikhathi esiningi sokukhetha umzila ofanele futhi ugweme izithiyo.”Banomuzwa wokuthi bangashayela ngokushelela lapho befuna ukusheshisa nokulawula izinto emakhoneni.
Okwehlayo kumele kukhuphuke.Ngamanye amazwi, ngaphandle uma une-gondola endleleni yangakini, konke ukugijima okukhazimulayo okwehlayo kuzokwenzeka ngaphambi komshikashika onzima wokukhuphukela phezulu komgwaqo womlilo.Kungase kwandise umthwalo emilenzeni, kodwa kulapho kuvela khona amabhayisikili entaba kagesi.
I-motor encane kagesi eyengeziwe isiza ukunyathela futhi inciphisa ubuhlungu esigabeni sokukhuphuka.Abantu abaningi bazoba nesilawuli kude endaweni ethile kusibambo ukuze umgibeli akwazi ukulungisa inani le-boost noma acime injini kagesi ngokuphelele.Kodwa-ke, zonke lezi zindlela ezilula zilethe ukulahlekelwa kwesisindo esikhulu, ngakho-ke uma ufuna ukubeka okuthile okulula ukuphonsa ngemuva kwemoto emotweni, kungase kudingeke ucabange kabusha.
Imoto kagesi eyi-hybrid inazo zonke izinzuzo ezingokoqobo zemoto evamile ye-hybrid, kodwa kunenzuzo eyengeziwe: inenjini kagesi nebhethri elishajekayo.Lokhu kunikeza ukusunduza okuwusizo ngaso sonke isikhathi lapho i-pedal strokes, ungakwazi ukuguqula i-pedal uye phezulu noma phansi njengoba kudingeka, noma uze uvale i-pedal ngokuphelele.Lokhu ukukhetha okuhle kulabo abasebenzisa impilo yabo, noma abangazizwa bengakhululekile ngabantu abathembele kuphela emilenzeni yabo ukugibela amabanga amade.
Ibanga lomkhiqizo wakwaVolt liya ngokuya limangalisa, futhi ukwakheka kwalo okunamandla kanye nekhwalithi yokukhiqiza evelele kuwenza ukuthengwa okungcono kakhulu phakathi kwemikhiqizo yethu yamabhayisikili kagesi ehlanganisa yonke into.Kunezinhlobo ezimbili ze-pulse, eyodwa enobubanzi bamamayela angama-60 (£1,699) kanti enye inobubanzi bamamayela angama-80 (£1,899), kanti eyokuqala iza ngosayizi ababili.Umbuyekezi wethu uthe: “Amathayi enziwe ngendlela yokuthi akhululeke futhi alawuleke kalula, amathayi awakwazi ukubhoboza, futhi amabhuleki ediski enza ukushayela endaweni emanzi kube ntofontofo.Ungasetha i-pedal assist ibe amazinga amahlanu ahlukene ukuze ukwazi Konga amandla athile ngesikhathi.Ibhethri elinamandla lingashajwa noma lisuswe ebhayisikilini.”
Uhlaka lwensimbi oluqinile, i-wheelbase omude (ibanga eliphakathi kwamasondo amabili), ukuma okuqondile kokugibela, ama-mudguards, nezinketho ezingenamkhawulo zokukhweza zama-rack nama-lever, amabhayisikili okuvakasha ayingqophamlando yokuhamba ngebhayisikili kwezinsuku eziningi Okokusebenza okubalulekile.Idizayini yala mabhayisikili ngokuyinhloko iwukunethezeka kanye nokumelana nemithwalo esindayo.Azisheshi futhi azikhiphi ukukhanya, kodwa zizokudonsa ngenjabulo wena netende lakho zisuka kolunye uhlangothi lomhlaba zikuyise kolunye ngaphandle kokukhipha umsindo omubi.
Nokho, ungaphambanisi ukuhamba nokuhamba ngebhayisikili.Ukuvakasha kwenziwa ikakhulukazi emigwaqweni egandayiwe, futhi ukulayishwa nokwehliswa kwamabhayisikili okuningi kwenziwa emigwaqweni enqamula izwe, futhi kuvame ukwenziwa ngamabhayisikili amatshe noma amabhayisikili asezintabeni.
Ukubuyekezwa komkhiqizo we-IndyBest akuchemi, izeluleko ezizimele ongazethemba.Kwezinye izimo, uma uchofoza isixhumanisi futhi uthenge umkhiqizo, sizozuza imali engenayo, kodwa asisoze sakuvumela lokhu ukuthi kubeke engcupheni ukukhava kwethu.Bhala izibuyekezo ngenhlanganisela yemibono yochwepheshe kanye nokuhlolwa kwangempela.
I-Brompton yakudala ilungele uhambo olude, udinga ukuyibeka esiqongweni sebhasi, ithilamu noma isitimela.
